Well ummm thanks but im using the original software that was supplied with
it 7.5.3 i think and i have only one hd installed but when i get to the
desktop from booting from the cd rom it doesnt find the hd when i go to the
old drive setup app it sees the hd but claims it is unsupported and wont
iniliaize it.
Im not brave enough to try osx on it, might try 8 or 9 if i can get it to
see the damn hd
Thanks for the help so far Mekavich.
Brian
